ASRock Micro ATX DDR3 1066 Motherboards 970M PRO3

Expert Review

Built around AMD's 970 and SB950 chipset, this is an outstanding AM3+ micro-ATX motherboard from ASRock. For starters it offers four DIMM slots supporting sixty-four megabytes (Mb) of DDR Ram at speeds up to twenty-four hundred megahertz (Mhz). It offers two PCI Express Gen 2.0 x16 slots that allow multi-GPU setups along with an excellent southbridge with six SATAIII ports running at speeds up to six gigabytes per second (Gb/s). This board also provides a full range of RAID functions and comes with a Realtek ALC892 audio chipset for full high-definition (HD) 7.1 channel support. With little in the way of downsides, this is an outstanding motherboard at a very reasonable price.Rating: 5/5
